Sue,

Good luck in all your treatments! I'm glad your employer is so helpful during this time. Mine has been too thankfully. In Feb. my doctor gave me a note for work saying I would return in July. I laughed thinking I would be back by April or May at the latest.Well, now my goal is to return on July 19th - guess the doctor knew what he was talking about! I had lots of energy when treatments first started, by the end of them I went from the bed to the couch and back to bed(plus trips to bathroom to get sick).I now have more energy, starting to eat solid foods,gaining a LITTLE weight - better than losing,and in general feel pretty good most days. Peg tube comes out today - I'm nervous about that but can't wait until it's gone! Hang in there, it might get bad for awhile but it will get better. I know how you feel about the traveling - the hospital where I had surgeries and speech therapy is 3 1/2 hours away. Luckily I diidn't go that far for treatments though. You'll be in my thoughts and prayers.
